Article Good grief.........They should have seen this coming. Let's see, they've sold X number of Xbox 360's to enthusiastic purchasers who are going to take them home, open the package, hook it up, and download the features. Did they really expect people to wait until after the holiday to play with their new 'toys'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tbrewst 17 Report post Posted November 28, 2006 I'm not gonna bang MS too hard about their XBox Live servers.I play games on my 360 that use both MS and EA servers and the MS ones win hands down.EA's are so bad that it's a struggle to use them on just a regular day. I agree that they should have planned better but that seems to be the way things go in the console market.All the new box rollouts are under produced so why not this too...lol.
